HOW TO CLAIM UNCLAIMED PROPERTY:

1. SEARCH FOR PROPERTY

STEP 1: Navigate to the PROPERTY SEARCH page

You can access the Property Search page through the home page by hovering over UNCLAIMED PROPERTY > “Search Unclaimed Properties”, or by simply clicking the GET STARTED button in the middle of the page.

STEP 2: Type the name, or business name, to search for Property

Type the owner’s name (First name, last name, or both) or business name into the Name/Business Name field and click SEARCH. If you receive too many results, try to narrow down the search by entering a city.

STEP 3: Add your property and click “CONTINUE TO FILE CLAIM”

Once you’ve found the property that belongs to you, check the CLAIM button and click the CONTINUE TO FILE CLAIM button to begin the claims process.

2. INITIATE A CLAIM

STEP 1: Review your claimed properties

Once you have selected the property(ies) you wish to claim, select your ‘Relationship to Owner’ for each property you are claiming. For example, if you are the owner of the property, please select ‘Owner’; if you are an heir to the property’s owner, please select either ‘Heir’ or ‘Representative,’ depending on the applicable situation. This information will provide you with the appropriate details necessary to claim the property. Click FILE CLAIM.

STEP 2a: Enter your information

Complete all required fields as the claimant. This should include your current physical mailing address (NOT a post office box), as this information will be validated and used for the purpose of reuniting you with your property. Click NEXT to move to the Preview screen.

STEP 2b: Address confirmation

You may receive an additional screen that asks you to verify the address you entered. This is to ensure the complete and proper information is being used for validation of your mailing address.

Preview all properties being claimed and verify the information you entered for completeness and accuracy. If correct, agree to the terms outlined at the top of the page and click SUBMIT to officially create / initiate your claim with the Delaware Office of Unclaimed Property. You will immediately be provided a claim number based on the information you entered.
